Built around TVS's cross - motocross motorcycle platform, the 2016 TVS RTR 450 AT Dakar relies on a 449 cc (27.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 95.0 x 63.5 mm (3.7 x 2.5 inches).
On the scales, the RTR 450 AT Dakar measures 135 kg (298 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 970 mm (38.2 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,505 mm (59.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 32-liter (8.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
